Help with error msg - can't open or save to web

C

I have been saving files directly to a vitual server rather than using ftp. I
open the web through "my network places".

Recently when I tried to open a file from the server, I got the following
message:

The current operation cannot be completed because an unexpted error has
occurred.

For details see C:DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\wecerr.txt

This also happens if I generate a file locally and try to save it to the
web. To complicate the matter, I have lost the original disc, so I can't try
reinstalling it as a solution. I have also searched my system for that file
and can't find it.

Any help appreciated

Try this instead:

C:DOCUME~1\%UserName%\LOCALS~1\Temp\wecerr.txt

Also with FrontPage closed and using windows search, search for files named *.web and delete any
found.
Then clear your browser cache and history files.
Then reopen FrontPage.

OK, I searched and found a .web file (which oddly enough is named the same
name as the website I'm having trouble with). I tried to delete it but got an
error msg saying:

Cannot erase file: Cannot read from the source file or disk.

Suggestions?

Make sure FrontPage and all webs are closed.
Then try deleting the *.web files
